If the frame isn't bent, it shouldn't be a big deal.
Get some quotes and see.

part it out man. If this is an si i ll be pretty interested in the engine. Thats at least 2000-3000 k worth of work. Car probably worth around 3500-4000 (tops). If you part it out you may be able to get at least 1500 for it ( if not more)

well there doesnt appear to be any frame damage,but thats going off of pictures and its a bit hard to tell.. if theres no frame damage, i say fix it. Whats it need? well, a door(~100 bucks), front bumper(~100 bucks), headlights(~150-200 for aftermarket), fender and inner fender(~100-130 bucks). So all in all ~450-530$ in parts, and none of them are hard to install at all. The hardest being the door, and thats only like 6 bolts. Easily changed with a friend to hold the door or if you have rafters in your garage use a rope. Is the rim ****ed too? or is that just the hubcap? I could be way off in space and have completely wrong prices or the wrong idea, but thats my personal opinion.
